Nigeria denounces Canadian court's classification of major political parties as terrorist groups.

Nigeria has rejected a Canadian court's decision classifying its ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as terrorist organizations. The Nigerian government called the ruling "erroneous" and an unacceptable interference in its internal affairs. The court's decision was based on allegations of political violence and subversion. The APC and PDP have both dismissed the designation as baseless and urged Canada to retract it.
